This week, Jo sticks her foot in her mouth and fumbles a trip to Europe, but at least she sticks it to the patriarchy while doing so. With us to dissect each and every one of Jo's social faux pas (which, I just learned, is in fact the plural form of "faux pas") is scholar and author Anne Boyd Rioux. Anne has written several books, most notably Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy, her acclaimed 2019 history of Little Women.
